I had actually never heard of emdashes until the whole AI thing and I just used hyphens instead. Now I'm embarrassed by my earlier ignorance and use emdashes -- and people think I'm an AI. I do put spaces on each side of them which I think is incorrect, at least.

Why is there no mention of the mysterious 6th creature who is being held by the human in the article?

Looks like a Yorkie to me.

My theory is that it’s a dog that’s always by her side, so it wasn’t as newsworthy as 5 cats who are usually off by themselves.

That's messed up. So screw the loyal dog-rabbit, but praise the cats for a one off event?

It’s a cat-spiracy.
